Collecting and Grouping Data
Gather and organize data into frequency tables, including grouped data, and understand the importance of appropriate intervals.
Key Questions
- Analyze the most effective way to collect data for a specific research question.
- Explain why grouping data is necessary for large datasets.
- Construct a frequency table for a given set of raw data, choosing appropriate intervals.

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
